Where Do I Find It?

Gordon Library won't have everything you need for your research. So, how do you use library resources and services to locate and retrieve information identified through your research?

Plan Ahead - allow yourself enough time.

Check thoroughly to see if WPI has the item:

For books, videos/DVDs, and conference proceedings - check the Library Catalog
For journals, magazines, newspapers - check the Library Journals search

Don't assume that the library won't have something. Always check. If your are not sure, ask a reference or interLibrary loan librarian.

FullTextFinder within Library Databases

Another way is to use the FullTextFinder option, found within QuickFIND, library databases, and Google Scholar which provides interlinking to fulltext within other library sources.
